Important Notice to Vendors ARRIVAL OF STOCK - As per timetable of events (page 6). PRE-SALE INSPECTION: Every animal will be subject to a full veterinary inspection and every animal entered for the sale must be inspected in the Sales premises by the appointed Inspector, on the day of the Sale. Animals infected by the contagious diseased ringworm etc, will not be accepted for sale unless accompanied by a vet’s certificate indicating that treatment has been given and the condition is no longer contagious. The inspection will be co-ordinated by the stewards who will require animals to be brought before the appointed inspector. The inspectors decision will be final and binding. Any animal which fails any part of the pre-sale inspection, will have their ticket red spray marked. These animals will be eligible to remain in their allocated pens but must not have their spray marked numbers removed. Any vendor or his representative failing to comply with this will be subject to disciplinary action by the Society. Any animal not meeting their weight for age on inspection or that are rejected on veterinary grounds are NOT allowed to go forward for sale. UDDERS - The attention of Purchasers is drawn to the fact that the British Simmental Cattle Society’s Conditions of Sale, in common with other Beef Breed Societies, do NOT include a specific warranty that females are sold as being “sound” in udder and teats. All known udder faults will, however, be announced. TATTOO MARKS/UK TAGS - All cattle entered for the Sale will have their tattoo marks/UK Tags examined as an integral part of the pre sale inspection procedure. Any marks found to have faulty, incorrect or illegible marks will be REJECTED from the Sale. Vendors are therefore urged, in their own best interests, to examine the tattoo marks of Sale cattle before the animal(s) leave their farm, so that faulty marks can be rectified in accordance with the required Society procedures. DNA TYPING OF STATED SIRES WHEN SELLING FEMALES IN CALF - As from 1st October 2008 it will be the Vendor’s responsibility to have a Sire DNA typed if the vendor is selling Females in-calf to a stated sire. If the Sire is no longer available and has not been DNA typed it is the Vendor’s responsibility to declare this in the Sales catalogue. (This rule also applies to Private Sales). To clarify: if a Sire is not DNA typed the Society cannot register his progeny. To obtain a sire profile without the sire, 5 progeny and their dams have to be DNA typed, this is 10 DNA profiles at a cost of £23.10 each. The purchaser must be made aware by the vendor of the potential registration problems and costs. UPSET PRICES - There will be an ‘Upset’ price of 2000 guineas on each bull presented for sale - i.e. if no opening bid of 2000gns is received for any particular lot, that lot will be passed out of the ring unsold. RESERVE PRICES: Vendors shall have the right to refuse to accept the final bid for their animals. The auctioneers reserve the right to charge half commission on the amount of the final bid in the case of animals which fail to reach the Vendors reserve price. SOCIETY LEVY - A Special Levy of 1½% of the sale price (after deduction of commission) will be charged by the Society in respect of all sales. Such levy will be deducted from the proceeds of sale by the Auctioneers before settlement. All animals will be sold in guineas (105 pence) and a commission of 5% will be charged by the Auctioneers on all sales. No animal may be sold privately before being passed through the auction ring and FULL COMMISSION will be charged on the sale of any animal sold by private treaty after the auction. All such transactions MUST BE PASSED THROUGH THE AUCTIONEERS OFFICE.

UNDERSTANDING THE BREEDPLAN PERFORMANCE RECORDING INFORMATION IN THIS CATALOGUE Only British Simmental GROUP BREEDPLAN EBVs or INTERIM EBVs with Accuracy (Acc) can be validly compared between herds.
ESTIMATED BREEDING VALUES (EBVS)
The EBV is the best estimate of an animal's genetic merit for that trait and they are to be used as a tool to assist in the selection of sires, the visual appearance remains very important.
ACCURACY
An accuracy value is presented with every EBV and gives an indication of the amount of information that has been used in the calculation of that EBV. The higher the accuracy the lower the likelihood of change in the animal's EBV as more information is analysed for that animal or it's relatives.
CALVING EASE
Calving Ease EBVs are based on calving difficulty scores, birth weights and gestation length information. More positive EBVs are favourable and indicate easier calving. DIR: Direct calving ease indicates how this animal influences the birth of its progeny.
Calving Ease (DIR) EBVs are estimates of genetic differences in the ability of a sire’s calves to be born unassisted from 2 year old heifers. The EBVs are reported as differences in the percentage of unassisted calvings. Higher, more positive, Calving Ease (DIR) EBVs are more favourable. For example, a bull with an EBV of +5.0% would be expected, on average, to produce 3% fewer difficult calvings from 2 year old heifers than a bull with an EBV of –1.0% (6% difference between the sires, then halved as they only contribute half the genetics). Cow condition is a significant factor on the ability and ease of calving. DTRS: Daughter’s calving ease indicates how well the animal produces daughters that have easier calving.
Calving Ease (DTRS) EBVs are estimates of genetic differences in the ability of a sire’s daughters to calve at 2 years of age without assistance. The EBVs are also reported as differences in the percentage of unassisted calvings. Higher, more positive, Calving Ease (DTRS) EBVs are more favourable. For example, a bull with an EBV of +4.0% would be expected to on average produce daughters that have 3% less calving problems when calving at 2 years of age than the daughters of a bull with an EBV of –2.0%. Continued use of sires with easy calving daughters may reduce the size of the cows and average pelvic area in the herd
14
BIRTH AND FERTILITY
GL: Gestation Length EBV (days) is based on AI records. Lower (negative) GL EBVs indicate shorter gestation lengths which generally relate to easier calving and increased growth after birth. For example, a bull with a Gestation Length EBV of –2 days would
be expected to produce calves that are born earlier, and more easily, than a bull with a Gestation Length EBV of +2 days.
BWT: Birth Weight EBV (kg) is based on the measured birth weight of animals, adjusted for dam age. The lower the value the lighter the calf at birth and the lower the likelihood of a difficult birth. This is particularly important when selecting sires for use over heifers. Birth Weight EBVs are expressed in kilograms (kg) and are calculated based
on weights of calves taken at birth. Small, or moderate, Birth Weight EBVs are more favourable. For example, a bull with a Birth Weight EBV of +2 kg would be expected to produce lighter calves at birth than a bull with a Birth Weight EBV of +6 kg, with a lower risk of a difficult birth. Please note, whilst low Birth Weight EBVs are favoured for calving ease they are also generally associated with lower overall growth potential. Consequently, birth weight and growth need to be carefully balanced. Fortunately, animals can be found that have both moderate Birth Weight EBVs and above average EBVs for later growth.
and
SS: Scrotal Size EBV (cm) is an indicator of male fertility in regards to semen quality quantity.Higher (positive) EBVs indicate higher fertility. Increased scrotal
circumference is associated with increased semen production in bulls, and earlier age at puberty of bull and heifer progeny. Increased scrotal circumference also has a favourable relationship with days to calving, such that bulls with larger scrotal circumference tend to have daughters with shorter days to calving. For example, a bull with a Scrotal Size EBV of +4 cm would be expected to produce sons with larger testicles at yearling age and daughters that reach puberty earlier than the progeny of a bull with a Scrotal Size EBV of -4 cm.
GROWTH
MILK: 200 Day Milk EBVs are estimates an animal's maternal effect on the 200 day weight of its calf. In the case of sires, this estimates the maternal effect that his daughters will have on the 200 day weight of their progeny. The 200 Day Milk EBV is expressed as kilograms (kg) of calf live weight at 200 days (ie. the expected difference in the weight of the calf at 200 days due to the maternal effect (milk) of the cow). The 200 Day Milk EBV is calculated by partitioning the difference in the 200 day weight of calves into growth and milk components.
The optimum level of milk production potential among beef cows is dependent upon the production system and environment in which the cows are run. Selection for increased milk production may be warranted when cows are run under good nutritional conditions and calves are sold as weaners. However, some environments may not support high milking cows. Larger, more positive, 200 Day Milk EBVs are generally more favourable, depending on the environment. For example, a bull with a 200 Day Milk EBV of +15 kg would be expected to sire daughters with higher milk production than a bull with 200 Day Milk
15
EBV of +5 kg. This higher milk production potential should be reflected through higher weaning weights among the daughter's calves. 200: 200-Day Growth EBV (kg) is calculated from the weight of animals taken between 80 and 300 days of age. Values are adjusted to 200 days and for dam age. This EBV is the best single estimate of an animal's genetic merit for growth to early ages. 400: 400-Day Weight EBV (kg) is calculated from the weight of progeny taken between 301 and 500 days of age, adjusted to 400 days and for dam age. This EBV is the best single estimate of an animal's genetic merit for yearling weight. 600: 600-Day Weight EBV (kg) is calculated from the weight of progeny taken between 501 and 900 days of age, adjusted to 600 days and for dam age. This EBV is the best single estimate of an animal's genetic merit for growth beyond yearling age.
CARCASE CWT: Carcase Weight EBV (kg) estimates the genetic difference in carcase weight at a standard age of 650 days. EMA: Eye Muscle Area EBV (cm2) estimates genetic differences in eye muscle area of a 300kg dressed carcase. More positive EBVs indicate better muscling on animals.
Larger, more positive, EMA EBVs are generally more favourable. For example, a bull with an EMA EBV of +4 cm2 would be expected to produce steer progeny with a greater degree of muscle expression than a bull with an EMA EBV of +1 cm2. RIB: Rib Fat EBV (mm) estimates the genetic differences in fat depth at the rib in a 300kg dressed carcase. More positive EBVs indicate more subcutaneous fat and earlier maturity. RBY%: Retail Beef Yield Percent EBV (%) represents total (boned out) meat yield as a percentage of a 300kg dressed carcase. A more positive EBV indicates higher percentage yield for the 300kg carcase size.
Terminal Index
The BSCS Terminal index is aimed at a commercial herd using Simmental bulls over large framed, mixed breed cows to breed steers and heifers to turn off at 16 months of age. All progeny are destined for slaughter and no replacement females are selected from within the herd. There is some emphasis on calving ease while finishing steers at around 630 kg live weight (335 kg carcase weight) using a pasture based production system supplemented with extra rations during the finishing phase. Use this index in a commercial herd to produce progeny for slaughter. The index has moderate emphasis on easier calving (ie getting a live calf with minimal human interference) while producing calves that will then grow quickly to market specifications at around 16 months of age. The index is focused on slaughter animals and does not account for maternal traits and is therefore not suited to breeding replacement females. If you are using smaller framed cows or heifers in your herd, then you should also put extra emphasis on a higher calving ease direct EBV when selecting a sire using this index.
Self Replacing Index
The BSCS Self Replacing index is aimed at a Simmental herd selecting replacement females from within the herd while breeding steers and excess heifers to turn off at 16 months of age. There is emphasis on calving ease and maternal traits while also looking to finish steers for
16 slaughter at around 680 kg live weight (350 kg carcase weight) using a pasture based production system supplemented with extra rations during the finishing phase. This Self Replacing index is also suitable to using Simmental sires over mixed breed cows where replacement females are sourced from within the herd. There may be some hybrid vigour expressed in the progeny depending on the breed type of the cows used. Therefore you should consider placing extra emphasis on the Calving Ease EBVs (more positive) of the sire to allow for possible heavier birth weights of his calves due to hybrid vigour. Use this index in both commercial and pedigree herds where you are balancing the requirements of selecting replacement females while also producing animals for slaughter. The British Simmental GROUP BREEDPLAN Estimated Breeding Values contained in this Sale Catalogue were compiled by the Agricultural Business Research Institute (ABRI) from data supplied by the breeders. Neither the British Simmental Cattle Society nor the ABRI oversee or audit the collection of this data.

MAJOR REDUCTION OF THE
RYDEN HERD
The major reduction sale of the Ryden herd has come about due to the loss of tenanted farm. All the cows have come straight off grass and have not seen any concentrates, as is the same with the calves as the cattle have been running alongside sheep. Over the years top AI bulls have been used across the herd as you will see from their pedigrees. The service sire used is Clonagh Tiger Gallant (sire – Dovefields Gallant, dam – Clonagh Neva). His progeny includes Ryden Darthvader who sold for 10,000gns Feb 2014 and Ryden Denny who sold for 5,800gns also Feb 2014. Three of the outfits on offer are sold with Limousin cross calves due to no Simmental stock bull being available at that time.
